1. 21. Hand-arm vibration and working women : Consequences and affecting factors

   Författare :Sonya H Bylund; Lage Burström; Anders Knutsson; Eva Vingård; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Public health; HAV; vibration; women; injuries; power absorption; handle; gender; Folkhälsomedicin; Public health medicine research areas; Folkhälsomedicinska forskningsområden; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

   Sammanfattning : The use of hand-held vibrating tools may lead to hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS), a condition with vascular, neurological and musculoskeletal symptoms. Vibrating tools are used in several occupations in which women can be found, e.g. by metal- and wood workers, drivers, and dental personnel. LÄS MER

3. 22. Long-term outcome after brain injury with a focus on return to work, life satisfaction and participation

   Författare :Ulla Johansson; Björn Gerdle; Umeå universitet; []
   Nyckelord :activities of daily living; brain injury; community integration; lived experience; life satisfaction; longitudinal; occupational therapy; participation; phenomenology; prediction; return to work; rehabilitation; MEDICINE; MEDICIN; Occupational and Environmental Medicine; arbets- och miljömedicin;

   Sammanfattning : Rehabilitation after brain injury is often a process which is spread over several years and runs through different phases. After sub acute in-patient rehabilitation a community based post-acute rehabilitation can follow. LÄS MER

4. 23. Strength training for physical performance and injury prevention in sports. Individualised and supervised training for female athletes

   Författare :Sofia Augustsson Ryman; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Nyckelord :Strength training; Physical performance; Functional tests; Strenght assessment; Injury prevention; Physical coach; Young female athletes; Volleyball;

   Sammanfattning : The overall purpose of this thesis was to obtain knowledge about individualised, supervised strength and conditioning programmes for physical performance and injury prevention in female athletes. Data are presented both on the influence of individualisation and supervision during resistance training for physical performance and injury prevention and on the athletes’ experience of resistance training and the role of the physical coach.

5. 24. On leukocyte recruitment in endotoxemic liver injury

   Författare :Daniel Klintman; Malmö Institutionen för kliniska vetenskaper; []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; ortopedi; traumatology; Kirurgi; orthopaedics; Surgery; Sepsis; Liver; Inflammation; Adhesion; Endotoxemia; traumatologi;

   Sammanfattning : Leukocyte recruitment is a key feature of liver injury associated with endotoxemia and systemic inflammation. The aim of this thesis was to define the adhesive mechanisms underlying leukocyte endothelial cell interactions, and the therapeutic potential of interference with specific adhesion molecules in endotoxemic liver damage.

7. 25. Attenuation of hand-held machine vibrations. Application of non-linear tuned vibration absorber

   Författare :Hans Lindell; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Impact machine; Hand-arm vibration; High frequency vibration; ATVA; Nonlinear tuned vibration absorber; White finger; HAVS; Transient vibration; Auto Tuned Vibration Absorber; Vibration dynamics; ISO 5349;

   Sammanfattning : Vibration injury in the hand-arm system from vibrating hand-held machines is one of the most common occupational health injuries and causes severe and often chronic nerve and vascular injuries to the operator. The objective with this study is to contribute to reduce hand-arm vibration injuries, first by developing methods of redesigning machines that will lower their vibration level and second to study how high frequency vibrations (HFV) above 1250 Hz effect the finger tissue which are not included in the current standard for risk evaluation.
